A Vermont Sneak Peek - Or Is That Peak?

All good things must come to an end and that includes mini-holidays to Vermont. It's going to take me a little time to get pictures and all sorted out but I didn't want to not post something of my adventure so I will leave you with this for the time being:

I wasn't aware that a LOT of roads in Vermont are of the unpaved variety which tend to turn to mud once things start to thaw - which they had! Consequently, roads like the one above led to my car looking like below:

But that's okay because those roads also led me to views that look like this:

And this:

More to come once I get my 400+ pictures sorted through and edited and I promise there will be covered bridges!

I can smell/taste the maple syrup! Makes me think of the show with Bob Newhart in which he played the owner of a bed & breakfast - and was constantly plagued by Larry, Larry, and brother Darryl! It may have been in Maine, I forget, but that same scenery.~~~Blessings~~~

I've never been to Vermont either -but would like to go there someday. (Never been to any of the New England states for that matter -so you know how much I've missed there for sure, huh?)But I loved these pics you posted thus far. And dirt roads, huh? Hmmm for me, where I live in PA -that's a bit like where I live. Although the road in front of my house is paved, it becomes a dirt road about a quarter of a mile down from my house and there are oodles of dirt roads in the woods down there!

I have friends from Vermont and one of my sisters goes there a lot, but I have never been. It is on my list of Must Go Destinations. Ever since the first time I saw White Christmas I've wanted a week in a Vermont Ski Lodge by the crackling fireplace. No skiing for me, though!

Your photos so far make me want to visit Vermont even though I'm getting sick of the cold weather here in Florida. I've never been to VA, but it's on my list of places to see. Looking forward to seeing more of your trip.
